Smile though your world is quaking

Today I tried to hit the ground running and despite my happy mood I think the ground hit me instead. I stepped on a push pin, stubbed my toe, zipped personal parts in my zipper getting dressed and then spilt coffee down myself so I had to dress all over again. While getting in the car I finger got closed in the car door and I ripped my shirt and broke my company security badge. It was not even 8:30 in the morning yet.
I am now at work and as I sit and start me day, smile on my face a song in my head (btw it is “rock the Kasbah”). Two coffees down my gizzard some dry roasted almonds and mandarin orange seltzer water and I’m ready to kick the day in the ass.
Flash forward to afternoon, “Rock the Kasbah” still vibrating in my brain pan, a silly ass grin on my face, some work turfed down to me from my boss, a few reports, a few parking lot tours and a spinach salad that had I wee bit too much grit on the leaves and at least 2 stems that felt like tree trunks as I tried to gnash down on them and a way- way too long conversation with a Russian woman that seemed to talk in circles, but in the spirit of glasnosts I put on my bigger silly ass grin on and nodded a lot till the Minsk menace trekked back upstairs to her version of Siberia.
Jumping on the time warp train and its closing time for work, my smile is still painted on, but had a few dents in it, Rock the Kasbah is still ricocheting off my brain cells, my desk is closed up and it’s time to head home to mow the lawn.
40 minutes later “Rock the Kasbah is on my mp3 player the mower is in my hands and my smile is set stronger on my face there is a bounce in my step, and then a rock in the mower blade, the smile fades to a smear the song changes to Frank Sinatra’s “World on a string” a flick of the rock, a push of the mower and a few songs flow and my work for the day is done, bring on some food and television and maybe a game or 2 of angry birds. Smile on my face a good night kiss and we gear up for another round of life.
